Mount Ho od Illuminated,


Portland, Ore. July 5--The fourth ol
July celebration yesterday at Portland
undertook and successfully carried out
an unprecedented feat in the way oil
fireworks. 1t was no less than the
illuminated of the summit of Mount
Hood, the tallest snow covered peak in
Oregon, IL, 720 feet in height. This was
done at nearly hAlf past II last night
and the light was plainly seen in this
city, q distance OF fifty miles. The
illumination agent was hundred
pounds of ordinary red fire. The TASK
wac accomplished by VIM. g. Steel a
local explorer of some note,
assisted by Nelson w. Durham,
of the Oregonisn staff, and five others
The party left here Friday morning last,
and camped Saturday night at the snow
line. From there to the summit the
journey was made on foot over soft SNOW
in some places hard ice, in Others where
steps must be cut with hatchets, and
two dangerous crevices must be crossed.
Besides, five Of the party had each to
carry twenty pounds of red fire, in adj
dition to blankets. The arrangement
when they left here was for two OF the
party to remain on the summit all night
in order to touch off the fire. This is the
first time human being spent night
on the summit. The mountain illumina.
tion was also seen in eastern Oregon
q distance of seventy-five miles. The
party began the descent OF the noun
tain this morning.

GREAT ENGINEERING FEAT.
An Iron Bridge Weighing IL 600 Tons
Moved from Hts Position,

An Iron Bridge weighing IL 900 Tons
1Hoved from Hts Position.
Philadelphia special; Two thousand
people saw wonderful achievement of
engineering skill,at Holmesburg junction
on the New York division OF the Penn
sylyania railway to-day. Thirty-two
men moved q distance of fifty feet the
iron bridge. weighing l 600 tons, that
spans the Pennypack, and they accom-
pllshed the task in the remarkable time
of eleven and one-half minutes. The
engineers of the road have been long
| making preparations for the work of to-
day. Some time ago the company de-
cided to build q four-arched stone bridge
in place OF the iron structure over the
| big creek. The iron bridge had to be
| moved west fifty feet that it might be
used until che stone bridge is built and
| ready for service.
| Six weeks ago the men began the big
undertaking with the building OF trestie
approaches to both sides OF the creek at
the point where the iron bridge WAS to
| find new he'd. The trestline had an
average height OF twenty-four feet, and
is on line with the grade of the old
railroad. The timber OF the western ap-
proach covered about 276 feet while
the eastern approach is 300 feet long.
Piles we're driven in the middle OF the
stream, on which was reared strong
trestlework fifty feet long and on o
level with and contiguous to the stone
pier under the bridge. Trestles of the
same length and height we're then built
on both banks OF the creek and in con.
tinuors line from the stone abutments.
| Every man was at his post, and the
| great thfong OF people was watching
with eager interest when the whizz of the
fast line was heard. an.; The train thun-
dered over the bridge seven minutes
late. Asit dashed away Superintendent
Ford gave the word to his army of La
borere, and it was scene OF transitory
animation as they tore mp rails and cui
away the fastenings OF the bridge. The
bridge had no sooner been released thar
MIR. Mershon gave the signal, ard the
thirty-two men men began to wind tht
sscrabs." As the bridge began to slowl,
move, more men went on it pouring
oil on the tallow-greased rails. Super.
inteHdent Crawford and th,
other officers had watches in theil
hands as the big iron structur,
moved calmly toward the end cf The
| trestling. AT one time the eastern enc
began to lag, but it was only for O fes
moments, and soon the bridge slid ove
the rails to its resting place without {
mishap and in the brief period of clever
: and half minutes, while mighty chez
went up from the people. With light.
ming like rapidity the gangs on botl
sides of the creek tore up and laid dowr
frogs, switches, sleepers and showed th,
rails to the new bed. They soon hat
. the rails connected with the two track
! on the bridge. A half hour after tn
bridge had been cut loose a. heavy con
! struction train was run over the struc
, ture and at 1919 the Philadelphia ex
! press dashed across.

There is suspicion that the dem
ooratic Mormons OF Utah, in the crea-
tion of an anti-polygamy section for
their proposed state constitution. are
playing deep game for admission as
an offset to that which cannot be much
longer postponed-the admission OF re-
publican Dakota. If the democratic
Mormoas of Utah place themselves
under constitutional obligation to
abandon polygamy 1t makes no differ
ence if their motive be all that is alleged.
Without polygamy, Utah is entitled to
statehood and If the polyRamists them
selves viii abandon in good faith their
pet sin for the purpose OF achieving self
government there is no reason why their
proposition should not be accepted.
Dakota will not object to the admission
of democratic state as on offset to its
republioanism. Lit is willing to concede
almost any terms which Will give it q
place in the union, though it will, OF
course, refuse to accept any terms which
involve the creation OF one state from
the whole of Dakota. It will coneede
the right of Utah to divide itself. or of
Montana or any other democratic ter
rfaory to divide and go in as two states,
if they can show the requisite area and
population. Dakota has no partisan
motives in its pursuit OF governmental
rights. 1t will claim all it is entitled to
and is willing to concede to all other
territories an equal privilege, whether
they be republican or democratic.
